Scribbles About Food: New Starbucks Lemon Bar Frap!

Heyyy guys! Exciting news: Starbucks released 6 new Frappucinos and I'm going to have to try them all... but the one that stuck out to me was the Lemon Bar Frap! It seemed the most different to me and I was excited to give this one a try!

So my Starbucks is cooler than yours... lol. No but the Barristas are super nice and really good an mine added extra lemonade... so the one I got had a ton of flavor to it! Also she added graham crackers on top, they didn't have the caramel sugar that was supposed to be on top and the graham cracker made it better in my opinion anyway...

When I first tasted it it tasted like straight up Lemon meringue pie. It was so amazing! The lemon flavor was really good and it tasted pretty much like I expected it to taste. Which is something like Chick Fil A's Lemon Meringue Pie. I no longer support Chick Fil A... but this was the first experience I had ever had with Lemon Meringue Pie and it was quite tasty. So all lemon Meringue Pies have since been compared to Chick Fil A because that's the first one I had... and none can really compare lol. Except this.

So the first few sips were absolutely out of this world... then I kind of just started drinking it and its not that it was bad... but the more I started drinking it the more it just tasted like lemonade to me. Just like a frozen lemonade. It wasn't bad at all... but it wasn't exactly as Lemon Bar as it was lemonade. If you mix it a little bit and especially mix it with the whipped cream, it keeps the lemon bar flavor a bit more. It tastes absolutely wonderful.

Now is this better than Cool Ranch Doritos... its on par. The flavor sophistication is there. I don't totally know if they're comparable... but yes its better than Cool Ranch Doritos for arguments sake. I drank this today, I didn't eat Cool Ranch Doritos. I am sort of trying to eat less junk and stay healthier, so it was kind of me choosing this instead of cool ranch doritos, and it was a good trade off. I was happy.

What it reminded me of a lot... which makes me incredibly excited for it... years ago Snapple did something called Snapple Pie and they had an Apple Pie flavor... out of this world! It really REALLY tasted like apple pie, but like a really good apple cry. The crust consistency was there, but it worked... it was really good. I loved it and wish they brought it back because it was awesome. This is the closest thing to that that I've tried. This Snapple Pie was made... over 10 years ago. It makes me really happy. I'm happy about that. And yes, I'd say its probably better than Apple Pie Snapple. Soooo... thats even better!

Let me know if you tried this and if you liked it! I would definitely recommend it! Really cool!

Byeee!

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c...

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
